Projects

The OctoMap library provides a compact and efficient data structure for robotic mapping in arbitrary 3D environments. I am the co-developer and current maintainer of the project, which is available open-source at GitHub under the BSD license.

During a research internship at Willow Garage in California I worked on the manipulation occupancy map collider and developed the 3d_navigation stack. This set of software packages enables a mobile manipulation robot like the PR2 to navigate in complex, threedimensional and cluttered environments.
